Enzymatic determination of triglycerides with a system Olli 3000 analyser. 1978

R Puukka, and H Jokela, and M Puukka

We describe a totally enzymatic method for determining serum triglycerides adapted for a System Olli 3000 analyser. In this procedure triglycerides are determined by measuring free glycerol enzymatically after hydrolysis of a sample with lipase and esterase. The method utilizes two standards for calibration, includes a blank correction and requires 20 microliter of serum. Forty serum samples can be analysed in about 30 min. The procedure is linear up to a concentration of 8 mmol/l of triglycerides. The precision and sensitivity of the method are good. A comparison of this method with another enzymatic method gave the correlation coefficient 0.988 and the regression line y = 1.02x + 0.02 (n = 95).

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D005991 Glycerol Kinase An enzyme that catalyzes the formation of glycerol 3-phosphate from ATP and glycerol. Dihydroxyacetone and L-glyceraldehyde can also act as acceptors; UTP and, in the case of the yeast enzyme, ITP and GTP can act as donors. It provides a way for glycerol derived from fats or glycerides to enter the glycolytic pathway. EC 2.7.1.30. Glycerokinase,Kinase, Glycerol
D006801 Humans Members of the species Homo sapiens. Homo sapiens,Man (Taxonomy),Human,Man, Modern,Modern Man
D001322 Autoanalysis Method of analyzing chemicals using automation. Autoanalyses
D014280 Triglycerides An ester formed from GLYCEROL and three fatty acid groups. Triacylglycerol,Triacylglycerols,Triglyceride
